About Me

My name is April, I'm married to Clay, a very tall, very funny architect. He's the city boy and I'm the country girl but together we are turning into homesteading weirdos. We have four kids that we are trying our darndest to raise loving God and His creation. To know us is to laugh with us, we laugh a lot. Especially at each other.

Remember when I had long luscious hair that flowed like silk down my back and I fixed it every single day?

Remember when I got my glasses and it became painfully clear that my hair wasn't really all that lucious or silky and that pulling it back in a pony tail was not considered 'fixing it' at all? I also discovered I had grown a beard.

I know you remember this. Right? The bangs. Good Lord the bangs. Well, okay....

Then I went and got my hair cut again and forgot all about posting pictures of me with my new style.

And that's just silly, because this blog is allllll about me, myself and I.

It's just that I feel so wonderful and free with my new cut and the six or eight or however many inches I had chopped off has given me a renewed lease on life and I've been flitting around town like a little bird. Flit, flit. Flutter, flutter. Tweet, tweet.

Who knew that hair could weigh a person down so much?

I'm a new person.

Gone is the serious Olivia with no smile.

Gone is the scruffy Sawyer with a scraggly pony tail.

I'm the best haired April I've ever been.

I mean the layers in my hair alone have brought out the body and bounce that my head has been missing all these long, dreary, big-bangs months.

Are you ready to see the new April?

Yes?

My friend, prepare yourself.....

I KNOW!!!! I'M GORGEOUS!!!!

See how my stylist incorporated my big bangs into my new cut? I feel absolutely radiant.

DO you remember the oil of olay commercials where she said Don't Hate Me Beacuse I'm Beautiful? Was that Sophia Loren? We used to laugh because we thought she was butt ugly. Your don't hate me reminded me of that.You look much better than FF I don't know how she kept her eyes open with all that crap on them.

you little brat. You post the worst picture of yourself I have ever seen, you are so much goofier on film. and then the fabulous Farah? She looked great didn't she? Personally i liked those hair do's I've been thinking about a shag. My hair looked good in those haircuts. SO all about youu yourself, yes you, when are YOU goin to post a pitccha of your real new do? WE want to SEE!

Just stay away from the illegal substances, okay? We don't want you to show up stoned out of your gourd and babbling nonsense on Letterman. Especially not if you still have that gun that Charlie issued to you.

I got my hair cut yesterday, and I've been thinking of posting a pic. I always have trouble getting decent pictures of myself, though, and the results are not much better when someone else is holding the camera. Maybe I'll try your method of showing off my new haircut. It looks more like Sabrina's.

Oh you are such a TEASE! Come on now don't be coy.....or.....could it be....no say it isn't so.....they didn't butcher it did they???? I mean after all you were saying how cheap, I mean inexpensive it was...

you had me going tooooooo .... i thought we'd actually get to seeeeeee this 30$ "do". i'm getting ready to go back to dying my own hair (except now it's with permanent dye, thanks to many additional grays) to save $$ on the on going monthly bills until this financial thing blows over. i'm a bit worried it will be scary!! :)
